Are those the FINAL numbers? 11 airplanes loss and only 62 furloughs? Seems like a smaller number then most would have expected? You all will just have 7 more then PSA currently has on the street with a loss of zero airplanes. I hope that is the FINAL number!!!!

Are your roommates in the first round or second round? How did you hear about the 32 in Nov?

[What] happened to the voluntary leaves etc?

Both mgmt and ALPA have known that there was going to be a need to furlough guys since last Winter! I cannot believe they are sending out furlough letters without any voluntary leaves at all.. Thats just sad.

But it might be a Tempe thing perhaps then since it happen here at PSA the same way!

The letters come to your mailbox at your crew base or home address? I got a phone call from company today but didnt dare pickup as it was my day off. If those numbers are correct im out with the first wave.

They come to your house... Certified, so someone has to be home to get it or you will have to go pick it up.

From the people I have been talking to the numbers are correct.
